Alliance war suggestion 2

I guess the alliance bank suggestion did not pass,

as i said before, alliance wars are usually not profitable, so people try to avoid it. The next time someone challenges us into a war, we are going to need a wager.

Challenger or Declarer of war, must put in a challenging fee, say, 1 billion metal, and should our alliance accept the war and its terms, we will match the amount, also 1 billion, or more than that if we agree to.

The winner according to terms takes all.

what I am suggesting is, in order for this to work, we need a trustee, or a person that holds the funds until the war ends. Will the Administration account in Speed Universe do this? we will send the resource to the Admin account at beginning, and when war ends, and everything is examined, the money is put to the winner's designated planet. and then the alliance can decide how to split the spoils with its members.

to prevent cheating:

- no single person can challenge an alliance
- every combat report will be posted on forum

so, will the admin account do this?

You do not understand my point.

But I would like a 1 to 1 conversation with you.

The admin would not be interfering in the war itself. The admin would basically be like a casino cashier (the person who takes your chips and gives you your winnings in cash).

BFC is basically suggesting we make wars a gamble

Myself I like the basic idea, but what I would change is instead of just one planet receiving the winnings, the pool should be distributed by the trustee so that no one can just take off with the entire pool.

Maybe if the devs create Game Operator accounts, these can be run by moderators like myself and designated the trustee accounts for these war wagers. Of course these accounts can't attack or be attacked unless the admins need them to be for testing purposes

I don't think the suggested precautions are necessary DR. If somebody tries to run off with the bounty he'll prob be hunted down like a dog and not only by his alliance members but prob the whole freaking Zorg community lmfao....
